industry. This will be our first time at Apps World North America and we feel
very fortunate to be able to participate and add to the event." - Vince Livings,
CEO/Co-Founder of Glowstick Games.
"Apps World is a chance to get the kind of feedback that is essential
to creating fun games. We look forward
to having a lot of industry experts play our game and tell us what they like,
what they think customers will like, and what could be better." - Mark Henderson,
CTO/Co-Founder of Glowstick Games
Ian Johnson, founder of Apps World, said: “Apps World North America is a
key event for anyone in the apps and mobile industry but it is also a chance to
support and promote the exciting new talent that is coming through the industry
too, especially as they will evolve into the market leaders of tomorrow. We are

Glowstick Games was founded in October 2013 by two game industry veterans :
Mark Henderson and Vince Livings. Both have spent the past 9 years working with
various companies such as EA, Microsoft, Zynga, Red Hot Labs, and Riot Games.
During that time they developed some of the key technology and visual styles
used for several successful social and mobile games at Zynga and Red Hot Labs.
The focus at Glowstick Games is to be a positive influence on the game
industry, not a negative one. That means the core of the company culture is
innovative thinking and fun game design. Glowstick Games is not utilizing
reactionary data driven design or designing hardcore monetizing games. The
mission is, simply, to deliver great games that people will genuinely enjoy
playing and want to share.
